How You Can HELP

Your stewardship is essential.

Admire the view from one of the Blue Ridge Parkway's many overlooks, or venture down its 469 miles and see all that we need to protect. Then, perhaps you will find it in your heart to support our work to protect this unique experience and place.

Whether you make a donation, buy a North Carolina Blue Ridge Parkway specialty plate for your vehicle, bequeath estate funds or contribute through the Parkway Plus program, you’ll be protecting the Parkway's future. And, for years to come, you’ll literally see the difference. That’s a promise.

Become a supporter of the Parkway through the Foundation, and join thousands of others who understand that even tiny efforts can do great work. As a donor, you'll become a member of our Community of Stewards who love the Parkway and want to assure its health and beauty for years down the road.

Because of the support of thousands of Blue Ridge Parkway specialty plate holders, individual donors and corporate partners, this year the Foundation has been able to make one of the largest allocations to the Parkway since our inception in 1997 - more than $750,000.

The Blue Ridge Parkway Foundation’s program of planned gifts to the Parkway honors the legacy of Andre Michaux, the French explorer who inspired many to examine, understand and enjoy the wonders of the Blue Ridge Mountains. To acknowledge those stewards who have included a gift to the Parkway in their estate planning, the Foundation has developed the Michaux Society membership program.
